NOSE-FORMER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented June 1, 1915.

Application filed December 15, 1913. Serial No. 806,796.

the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to improvements in nose-formers.

It has already been proposed to provide nose-formers with two plates capable of being adjusted at different angles one relatively to another. These plates are connected together by means of a hinge or joint, so that the upper and lower ends of one plate can only be adjusted in an equal manner relatively to the corresponding ends of the second plate. 7 7

According to the present invention the plates are capable of being moved on pivots and each plate has independently from the other plate a separate pivot upon which it can be fixed in difierent angular positions. This imparts to the plates a greater adaptation to the different nose-forms.

One convenient mode of carrying the invention into effect is shown by way of example in the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 shows a front view of the noseformer and Fig. 2 a cross-sectional view of Fig. 1.

1 and 2 denote two plates consisting preferably of a resilient material, for instance celluloid. These plates are bent in such a manner, that they possess two flaps 3 and 4 directed one toward another. The two plates 1 and 2 are connected by means of a Ushaped member or bar 5, each plate being attached by means of a screw 6 passing through an oblong slot 7 of the bar 5 to the latter. The plates 1 and 2 are capable of being rotated on the screws 6, so that they can be adjusted one relatively to another the plates being fixed in the proper position by screwing up the nuts of the screws 6. It is therefore possible to alter the angle inclosed by the edges 8 and 9 of the plates 1 and 2. In order to secure these parts in the desired angular position there are further provided in the plates 1 and 2 holes 10 and 11 through which can be drawn strings which, as already stated serve also to secure the plates 1 and 2 in difierent angular positlons one relatively to another. To the bar 5 there is fixed by means of a screw 13 and an oblong slot 14 a third resilient plate 12, which has the shape of a tongue and comes to lie behind the plates 1 and 2.

15 denotes a fourth plate, which is bent and arranged between the plates 1 and 2, the plate 12 pressing this plate 15 against the plates 1 and 2. A band 16 passes through slots 17 of the plates 1 and 2 and serves to fix the nose-former on the head. The two plates 1 and 2 exert a resilient pressure on the nose-sides; The plate 2 serves to exert a resilient pressure from beneath on the diaphragm or column of the nose, while the plate 15 serves to exert a pressure on the bridge of the nose.

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is:

1. A. nose former comprising a support, two independent plates, each rotatably mounted on the support and having a pivot pin at right angles to the plate, and independent means to independently secure each plate in different positions.

2. A nose former comprising a support, two independent plates, each having a pivot pin at right angles to the plate and rotatably and laterally movable in the support and means including the pins to independently secure each plate in difi'erent positions.

3. In a nose-former two plates, a bar connecting said plates and having oblong holes in said bar, a screw on each of said plates passing through one of said oblong holes, nuts on said screws for securing these plates in the desired position on said bar and means for securing the nose former on the head.

4. In a nose-former two plates, a bar connecting said plates and having oblong holes in said bar, a screw on each of said plates passing through one of said oblong holes,

7 nuts on said screws for securing these plates 5.
